We'll see what the roster looks like next year, but neither would be necessary beyond this season IMO. Could've let Eddy play out the contract and walk. Or could've tried to trade something less than Bokk for Faulk and then let him walk. But here we are, with Faulk signed forever. Feeling regret won't change anything about it; just gotta hope he fits better if he gets a bigger role. Mighty-big paychecks he's getting...

To answer your question though, Faulk > Edmundson. Even Faulk on the left side is probably a better player than Eddy.
